Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) is comparing “pro-Palestinian” protests to the Black Lives Matter movement. They are alike in more ways than she can express, including that they are both built on myths.
Bush is tying the two movements together by claiming that the antisemitic protesters harassing Jewish students on college campuses and expressing support for terrorism are “agitators” who “infiltrate the movement, manipulate the press, & fuel the suppression of dissent” by police, which is the same thing she alleges happened to Black Lives Matter protests.
